Beware The New Prophets (Mass Market Paperback)

Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Pastor Bill Randles has touched on a subject of great importance today. The re-emergence of the Latter Rain Movement with its aberrant theology and careless eschatology is deceiving many within the ranks of Pentecostalism and Charismaticism. When this doctrine first emerged in the 1940's it was rightly challenged by the mainstream Pentecostal denominations. Today it is finding greater acceptance among those denomination's pastors, and has made great inroads among their national leadership. The deception never really died; it went underground to

await the day when sound doctrine would be of little concern amount the leadership of the churches. This book should help the uninformed as well as those already aware of this

deception to understand the threat posed by today's self proclaimed "apostles" and "prophets."

About the Author

Bill Randles is the pastor of Believers in Grace Fellowship church, which he pioneered from his own home in 1982. He is also the author of three books, all of which speak to different aspects of the current "signs and wonders" revival, which Pastor Randles believes, presents a dangerous and misleading substitute for orthodox Christianity. Making War in the Heavenlies, addresses the spiritual warfare error; Weighed and Found Wanting: Putting the Toronto Blessing in Context, which seeks to bring insight into the roots of the so-called "Laughing Revival"; and his latest book, Beware the New Prophets, is a caution regarding the Prophetic Movement. Pastor Randles is also a husband and the father of six children. He has preached the Gospel in Africa, India, and the United Kingdom as well as pastoring for 18 years.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent handling of the topic, October 27, 1999

By	Joanne Hanson ([e-mail]) (USA) - See all my reviews

Pastor Randles has done a straight-forward job of discussing the "new" religious movements of today's Pentecostal/Evangelicals. Well documented scripture references have been the basis of his every arguement. He has made an excellent case for his point. The book is well worth reading by any Christian who is serious about his walk with Christ.

4.0 out of 5 stars Addressing the Prophetic, February 23, 2008

By	Roberto (Mass, USA) - See all my reviews

I thought the handling of this issue was done very well. Pastor Randles was able to address the biblical perspective on the gift of prophecy, without having to base his arguments in philosophy or subjective experience. For those involved with the Kansas City movement, or were involved with the Latter Rain movement, this will give you a new perspective on how these so called "prophets" stand up to the test of scripture.

1.0 out of 5 stars What a mess. How sad. Very inaccurate., January 22, 2003

By	TERRY MILLER (N. Battleford, SK., Canada) - See all my reviews

Unfortunately the author appears to not have had any direct contact with Sharon Schools and Children's Homes here at North Battleford, Saskatchewan, site of the Revival of 1948, which still continues today. His research is flawed and cannot stand up. His information is inaccurate and does not tell the real story. Greetings from Sharon Schools and Orphanage at North Battleford, Saskatchewan, from Terry Miller...one of the ministering Brethren at Sharon. Feel free to contact me directly for the true story. ...
